About Boudist

I (Daniel Boud) started Boudist in 2003, not knowing what it would become. I still don’t.

It’s primarily a place for me to share photos i’ve taken. It used to be my only personal publishing output, but as i’ve evolved and the internet has too i have a presence in all sorts of places. A portfolio, tumblr, facebook, instagram and other places i’ve since forgotten.

In 2003 i was a web designer with a passing interest in photography. Ten years later that interest has grown into a full blown obsession and a full-time photography career.

My photography

I love taking pictures. I’ve been doing it since i was a kid but it’s not something i took seriously until i bought my first digital camera. That was just a simple Canon Ixus V, but i used it almost every day, snapping ordinary things in my life.

I love seeing live music so would take my camera along and shoot pictures from the crowd.

I upgraded to a Canon 350D in March 2005 on a trip to Austin for SXSW. I wangled myself a media pass and shot dozens of gigs. SPIN and Rolling Stone magazine found some of my SXSW photos online and asked to publish them.
